LE NO.: Z -5397-A
The total square footage for each of the uses of the building is as follows:
a. Community Development Corporation — 21,263 sf (office space, child
development center, daycare, after school care, summer camp and
church)
b. Office/Warehouse — 37,500 sf
c. Office/Warehouse 81,040 sf (Carrier)
d. Office/Warehouse — 27,000 sf
The total seating capacity of the church is 400. There are currently
250 members. The church services will be from 7:00 to 9:00 pm and Sunday
from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.
Parking for a church is based on one (1) parking spaces per ever four seats in
new principal assembly areas or additions to currently existing structures. Based
on the proposed membership 100 parking spaces would be required to serve the
church use. The site contains ample parking to support the proposed use.
The request includes the allowance of the CDC's Multi-purpose room for other
activities such as reunions and receptions to generate additional revenue. Staff
is not supportive of the "event center" aspect of the request. The applicant has
not provided staff with details of the proposed uses, the hours of operation or the
activities taking place related to the event center. Based on the lack of
information staff can not support the request.
The building and parking exist. There is no increase in building size or increase
in parking area. The rehabilitation cost is anticipated to range from six to eight
percent of the current sites building value.
Staff is not supportive of the request as filed. Staff feels the rezoning to add a
church as an allowable use for the site is acceptable. Staff does not however
support the allowance of rezoning the site to allow other event center type
activities without the applicant providing details on the these activities including
proposed hours of operation and the activities that will be taking place being
better defined.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends denial of the request as filed.

as to the need for the deferral. Staff stated there was a City ordinance which did not
allow the sale of light wine and beer near a church. Staff stated there was not a clause
in the ordinance which allowed grandfathering. Staff stated there was an existing
convenience store located within the specified distance of the proposed church location.

consideration and needed addressing prior to the Commission moving forward. Pastor
Scruggs requested staff keep him informed as to the progress of the request.

previously was the location of a convenience store and the proposed church. The
distance between these two uses exceeds the distance noted in Chapter 4 of the City
Code. Section 4-93 states it shall be unlawful to sell beer or light wines within three
hundred (300) feet of any church in the residential section of the City. The residential
section of the City is defined as any part that is outside of the fire zone. The business
